Then came war, and the vineyard was abandoned. Years later, the vintner returned to his land, and found a new vine. He tasted the grapes and fell in love. It was Cabernet Sauvignon.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe allegory of the vines as animals gives a whimsical rendering of the story. The  fox –Cabernet  Franc–  has attributes of Cardinal Richelieu, the first famous lover of the grape. The siren –part woman, part bird– represents Sauvignon Blanc in all her savage glory. On the right, their child –Cabernet Sauvignon – is depicted as a world traveller, adventuring from the French Pyrenees to the Catena Zapata pyramid, at the foothills of the Andes, in Argentina.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Catena Zapata","offers":[{"title":"1 Bottle","offer_id":44844746932333,"sku":"NEGCATCAM19","price":179.9,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1421\/5622\/files\/Worldwine-2026-03-16T110207.898.jpg?v=1773677342","url":"https:\/\/worldwine.com.au\/products\/catena-zapata-birth-of-cabernet-2022","provider":"World Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
